Not illustrated. 1902 edition. Excerpt: ... or Christians, as missionaries, by distributing the scriptures and other books which the Censor authorizes, by quiet personal work in such exposition of the Word of God as is permitted in the Book Depot, by medical missions and schools, the societies can accomplish their end in some measure; while any denomination or congregation recognized by the State can devote itself to very definite work among the Jews without arousing opposition on the part of the State Church. Russian Jewish Missions had a unique beginning, being undertaken in the first instance by the Czar. Alexander I, who was more favorably disposed towards his Jewish subjects than were his successors, employed J. C. Moritz, a converted Russian Jew, as an evangelist among his brethren from 1817 to 1825. He met with much success, and many Jews were baptized into the Greek Church. In the year in which Moritz was commissioned, the London Jews' Society obtained from the Czar the assurance of his assistance in spreading the Gospel among the Jews of Russia, and a letter of protection for Rev. B. N. Solomon, who proposed to undertake this work. This was on the occasion of the visit of Rev. Lewis Way to Russia. In 1821 Alexander McCaul, whose "Old Paths" has been the means of the conversion of many Jews, undertook to establish a mission in Warsaw. He was most successful, so far as the Jews are concerned, but the opposition of the authorities made it necessary to retire to Germany in the following year. Concessions were soon obtained, and the work resumed with vigor, McCaul finding himself surrounded by seven assistants. Nicholas I. restricted the Mission to Poland, and in 1830 placed it under the Lutheran Church. Still it prospered, additions being made to the staff and...

DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from A Century of Jewish Missons It passes as an axiom in missionary circles that facts are faggots for missionary fires. When kindled by the Holy Spirit on the altar of a consecrated heart, or when heaped upon a heart already aflame with love, they cannot but be converted into light and blessing to the world. The ever-multiplying periodicals devoted to the interests of Jewish Missions supply those who have time to gather them with an abundance of facts about current events in this field. Admirable historical sketches of a few of the larger societies have been published and works of great value on different phases of the Jewish question have appeared, but the English reader has not been supplied with a history of Jewish Missions. The authors aim has been to supply the increasing demand for a concise, comprehensive and convenient handbook which, while making no pretense to exhaustive and elaborate treatment, yet introduces the reader to practically every Society and Mission Station that has existed in the past century, to most of the prominent missionaries, and to the different types of Jew found in the many lands whither he has wandered.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKIn nineteenth-century Britain the majority of Jewish believers in Christ worshipped in Gentile churches. Some attained ethnic and institutional independence. A few debated the implications of incorporating into their worship the observance of Jewish tradition, and advocated the theological and liturgical independence of Hebrew Christianity, characterised by opponents as the "scandal of particularity". Previous scholarship has documented several Hebrew Christian initiatives but this monograph breaks new ground by identifying almost forthy discrete institutions as components of a century-long movement. The book analyses the major pioneers, institutions and ideologies of this movement and recounts how, through identity negotiation, hebrew Christians - and also their Gentile supporters - prepared the way for the development in the twentieth century of Messianic Judaism.
